The MLS schedule shook out in an odd way this season, leaving the Seattle Sounders and LA Galaxy to play each other twice in a row at the end of the season. And lucky for us, they're tied atop the standings. They play the first of what is essentially a two-game playoff series for the Supporters' Shield on Sunday (8 p.m. ET, ESPN2).
LA Galaxy vs. Seattle Sounders live stream: How to watch MLS online
Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports
Both teams enter the game on 60 points, and no matter what, one of them will finish the year with the league’s best record. Seattle currently holds the tiebreaker, with more wins, so they will clinch the Shield with a victory on Sunday. LA needs to win one of the two games, and can keep their hopes of winning the Shield alive with just a draw in the first game.
Seattle enters the game healthy, with only reserves Kevin Parsemain and Damion Lowe out injured. LA are missing just one player who features regularly for them when healthy, left back Todd Dunivant.
Because this is a national television game, it will be blacked out on MLS Live. That service will have a replay of the game 48 hours after it ends. The place to watch this game live online is the Watch ESPN app, which will have two different streams of the game. You can catch either the English-language ESPN2 stream or the Spanish-language ESPN Deportes stream, if you have a television subscription to both networks.
The game will be on TSN in Canada and BT Sport in the UK. For listings from other countries, check out Live Soccer TV.
